My son and I converted this from the Star Wars episode I droid grav tank about 18 months ago...it always had a Tau look about it, and fits in nicely stylistically. Didn't take much to convert with Tau weaponry and paint job. It's pretty mean on the battlefield, with Tau shhields, lots of weapons etc, but my Ultramarines still managed to take it down...:-)

It certainly fits the Tau aesthetic.
On a vehicle that size, it would be nice to see more detail picked out. Otherwise, nice job.

You're right - still a WIP (although it's over a year old), finding time to finish things is always hard!

Utilizing Careful Highlighting
Finland... the country next to Sweden? No! That's Norway! Finland is to the east! No! That's Russia!

Pretty cool conversion on the thing.
How big is it?

I like the ion wing guns but the rail guns just seem way to small. But it does look Tau.

I like the conversation, I also suggest a bigger main cannon though.

The USS Orinoco was a Federation Danube-class runabout that was in service with Starfleet in the late 24th century, attached to Deep Space 9. It was outfitted with a sensor pod.
